Chapter 48 is no challenge for him at all.
Chapter 48 is no challenge for him at all.
Lin Ye landed on his sword outside the villa and saw Qiao Yijing, who had already returned home from get off work, pruning in the garden as soon as he entered.
Ninetales lay soundly at her feet, with a chubby, pink Pokémon carrying an egg in its lap following behind, helping her out.
Lin Ye had not only met the former, but had also fought alongside him, and that chubby pink Pokémon was the Chansey that every Nurse Joy had.
These Pokémon are incredibly rare, almost entirely monopolized by the Nurse Joy family. If an outsider happens to own one, they'll inevitably be investigated.
Besides these two Pokémon, there was also a very small insect-type Pokémon that flew easily among the flowers that Joyce was arranging.
"Ribbonfly! I didn't expect that your Pokémon are all rare species from Hoenn."
"Hehe~, our Nurse Joy clan doesn't belong to any region, and I didn't grow up in Hoenn, so what's so strange about that?"
"But Lin Ye, you came back so late the day before yesterday, and didn't come home at all yesterday. Could it be that you went to some strange place?"
After Qiao Yijing finished speaking, she pouted, her lips twitching slightly, as if she were complaining!
"That's unfair to me! I've been busy training with my Pokémon lately, I haven't had time to go to any strange places."
Oh, right, I spent the whole night at Mount Song yesterday because the Snow Fairy broke through a crucial bottleneck!
"What! You stayed at Songshen Mountain all night yesterday. It's much more dangerous there at night than during the day. You didn't encounter any danger, did you?"
Qiao Yijing, disregarding her complaints, ran up to Lin Ye with concern in her eyes and looked him up and down.
"Don't worry, although we encountered some trouble, we've resolved it all. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to come back, would I?"
After she finished speaking, two ethereal figures rose up from her shadow, one on the left and one on the right. They were Froslass and Gastly, who had just joined the party!
"You've caught another new Pokémon? Isn't that a bit too fast? I'm afraid it might slow down the growth of your original partners..."
"Wow, the Snow Fairy has already broken through to the 'Professional Level'! That's way too fast!"
"Hehe~, it was just a bit of luck, but it also meant I spent a whole night at Mount Songshen, so it was worth it now."
"Lin Ye~, I know you're a very ambitious trainer, but please be careful. After all, you're still young, and you have plenty of time ahead of you!"
Qiao Yijing felt guilty thinking about how hard Lin Ye had worked, while she had been sarcastic and sarcastic. She felt wronged for Lin Ye.
Seeing that the atmosphere had suddenly become right, Lin Ye immediately seized the opportunity and decisively launched an attack:
"Sigh~, to be honest, for someone like me who used to have no goals, becoming stronger really didn't matter."
But things are different now. I have a goal I must pursue, so I will not allow myself to stop now.
"What are your goals?"
"Hmm~, Jingjing, as a direct descendant of the Joey family, your family probably wouldn't easily let you be with someone without power!"
Qiao Yijing immediately realized what was happening, her face flushed red, and she whispered:
"Actually, if it's about pursuing happiness, I can work hard on my own."
"No, I believe I can grow to a point where no one in this world dares to underestimate me, and that day is not far off."
As the sun set, Qiao Yijing gazed at Lin Yeru's handsome features, which were tinged with a golden-red hue, and her eyes gradually became hazy...
Gradually, their breathing became rapid...
Gradually, the two drew closer and closer, their heartbeats and lips finally meeting in a kiss.
Seeing this, the Snow Fairy let out a cold snort, not without envy, and the chilling aura directly frightened the Gastly beside her.
The latter chuckled and planned to sneak into the house while the two were being affectionate to see if he could steal something, but the Snow Fairy grabbed him and pulled him back, out of sight, out of mind.
Meanwhile, Qiao Yijing and Bing Jiuwei simply pretended to be asleep, Diejie Mengfeng hid behind the flowers, and Chansey shyly tried to cover its eyes, but unfortunately, its arms were too short and its body too round, so it simply held up the egg in its arms to block the scene that was not suitable for children.
A moment later, the two remained motionless. Qiao Yijing's cheek was pressed against Lin Ye's chest, and the latter naturally embraced her delicate body, which was laden with fruit, allowing the setting sun to merge their shadows into one.
Qiao Yijing lowered her beautiful eyes slightly, it was unclear whether she was enjoying the moment or reminiscing about the kiss just now.
Lin Ye was extremely pleased with himself. Because he seized the opportunity, acted decisively, and used his eloquence, he greatly increased the progress of winning over the number one rich woman, achieving remarkable results.
Perhaps it was a matter of practice making perfect, but he felt he was becoming increasingly adept at dealing with wealthy women.
Even if there were ten more, let alone just three including Xiao Guang whom he just met, it wouldn't be a problem for him at all.
Of course, the prerequisite is good time management to avoid them meeting.
"Oh, right, do you remember that tenant I mentioned last time? She just said she's going to host a welcome party for a close friend, and she'll bring her over to share the apartment later. I'll introduce them to you then..."
"Okay, okay~ We're about the same age, so we should have a lot in common."
Looks like our big "house" is about to get lively!
"Okay, you rest for a bit, I'll go make some food!"
"I'll help!"
"It's okay~ You stayed at Mount Kinabalu all night yesterday, you must be exhausted. Just rest, I'll go!"
Qiao Yijing turned to her Pokémon and said, "Chantrychnine, come help with the cooking!"
"Chirp~~"
Chansey was taken aback, its expression amused, thinking to itself, "How can your master be so fond of women and neglect his friends? I've been busy with you all day, and now you're assigning me tasks when I get home at night."
"Alright, stop standing there. Lin Ye definitely didn't eat well last night. Fry this egg for him later and make sure he gets some nutrition."
"/ᐠ。‸。ᐟ\"
"And Nine-Tailed Fox, hurry up and get moving too, make Lin Ye some ice cream to warm him up!"
"Oh, right, Butterfly, you just collected so much nectar, this is perfect for us!"
...............
Soon, the food was served.
Qiao Yijing's cooking skills were unexpectedly good.
Fried eggs, pasta, salad, and ice cream desserts made by Bingjiuwei, along with drinks made with butterfly honey, all offer a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate.
The two sat facing each other and began to enjoy the candlelight dinner, while the Pokémon ate high-quality energy cubes.
Since it's a candlelight dinner, it has to be accompanied by melodious music. Qiao Yijing's surround sound system is no joke; Lin Ye and the others had experienced it before!
"Lin Ye~"
"What's wrong?"
"Lei Debiao will be coming to Water Town for an event in a couple of days, will you come with me?"
"You mean that superstar Pikachu? Of course, no problem. He's your favorite Pokémon actor."
Just as the two were about to resume their earlier sweet atmosphere, the music was suddenly interrupted by an urgent news broadcast:
"Shuijing News Channel is giving an emergency broadcast: This afternoon, a large-scale scorpion invasion occurred in our city."
It is understood that these scorpions came from a wildlife reserve and fled to human settlements after being attacked by a group of armored birds exhibiting unusual behavior.
The reserve is currently temporarily closed, and relevant personnel are investigating the cause.
...It is worth mentioning that this incident attracted the attention of Mr. Daigo Zvoni, the heir to the Devon Corporation.
According to witnesses, a white Metagross was seen flying into the depths of the protected area this evening, and it is suspected that Daigo himself went to investigate...
"Daigo, he's come to Lilycove City!"
"What's wrong, Lin Ye? Do you really admire Daigo-san?"
"Ah~, I wouldn't say I idolize him, but I definitely know something about that kind of person."
He's said to like Steel-type Pokémon and some strange stones, and he probably came here because of Skarmory's unusual behavior.
As luck would have it, I have some things that might interest Mr. Daigo. If we can make a deal, I'm sure it will be very rewarding.
"Then I'll go with you!"
"Aren't there new tenants coming over tonight?"
"It's alright, compared to you, this is nothing."
Lin Ye felt a warmth in his heart, stood up, gently patted Qiao Yijing's back, and softly comforted her:
"Don't worry, Pokémon in protected areas are generally very docile, and I'm looking for Steven. Someone like him wouldn't target me, would he?"
Qiao Yijing thought about it and agreed. She then told Lin Ye to be careful and watched in surprise as he summoned his sword sheath and floated away on the sword.
"This guy has really mastered the art of manipulating the heterochromatic scabbard!"
